Ortiz Tapia resigns, EVP Kouhel sworn in as new president

Marquette Student Government President Abraham Ortiz Tapia resigned effective immediately during Monday’s meeting.

Ortiz Tapia announced his

President Donald J. Trump was inaugurated Jan. 20 as the 45th president of the United States. Simultaneously, Clare McCullough, Yazmin Gomez and Lily Osborn packed their bags. These Marquette students left around 2:45 p.m., and after a grueling 13-hour trek through the night, they arrived at the same place where President Trump was sworn in: Washington, D.C. The students’ destination was the Women’s March in Washington D.C., an event that took place the day after the inauguration, Jan. 21. Hundreds of thousands gathered, seeking solidarity and an outlet to voice their concerns. The event grew from humble beginnings, sparking sister marches in nearly every major U.S. city and dozens more cities around the globe.

The trip to D.C. to attend the march was something the three had been planning for months, and they would have attended regardless of the result of the election. Had the election gone in favor of Hillary Clinton, there would have been a more

resignation from MUSG with a bittersweet goodbye. He announced that this senate meeting would be his last, said his goodbyes and read the poem “You are a force of nature.”

“This was not a rash decision at all,” said Ortiz Tapia. “I have loved my time here at MUSG.” Executive Vice President Adam Kouhel will become the next MUSG president. According to Article XI of the MUSG by-laws, in the event of a

vacancy, the executive vice president shall become the president.

Kouhel will appoint the new EVP with two-thirds affirmative vote of the present Senate.

Former President Ortiz Tapia said the move came after reflection and discussion with his peers. He said he was very happy about his team and their support of his decision.

“I’ll be focusing more on my studies,” Ortiz Tapia said. “You have to balance your life. Things

were just getting a little heavy and I was getting stretched out.”

Ortiz Tapia is currently a senior in the College of Engineering pursuing his degree in biomedical engineering.

This was Ortiz Tapia’s first year in MUSG. “In the past, presidents have worked their way up the ladder,” said Legislative Vice President Ricky Krajewski.

MARCH, from page 1

Students of all colleges, genders gather to advocate, protest

Marquette students gather in Washington D.C., Chicago, Milwaukee, Madison for the historic women’s march, bringing over two million protesters around the world.

jubilant, celebratory mood to the trip.

Still, there was no shortage of hope to be found.

“What makes this nation great is the people, regardless of our leader,” McCullough, a sophomore in the College of Arts & Sciences, said. “There’s a lot to march for. There’s a lot to be done.”

McCullough marched for a multitude of things: the environment, immigration, diversity and the disabled.

Large security firms were

hired to ensure the march was safe from counter-protestors.

While McCullough was aware there might be opposition, she was not worried.

“The march is really about peace,” McCullough said. “We just want peace.”

Meanwhile, in Milwaukee, supporters marched in the morning of the 21st in the Riverwest neighborhood. The march stretched from 815 E. Locust St. to 735 E. Center St. and lasted from approximately 10 a.m. to noon. Following the

march were several festivities in honor of the event, including a feminist film festival and art gallery at Company Brewing.

Nellie Vance and Brittany Nordstrum, organizers of the Milwaukee Women’s March, were motivated by their passion for human rights and their ultimate goal of achieving more representation for people of color. They were pleased by the turnout.

“It was much bigger than we expected,” Vance said. “We had talked about doing this since

NOW LEASING FOR FALL 2017 CALL TODAY 414.376.7300 1125 N. 9TH STREET | LIVE-ELEVEN25.COM

December, but it really kind of all came together in the last two weeks. We weren’t even public until last Thursday.”

Vance and Nordstrum believe the ability of everyone to come together so quickly is a good sign.

“Milwaukee isn’t New York, or D.C. or even Chicago,” Nordstrum said. “But it’s important for all of us to organize and protect those who are here. Every state, every city needs that.”

While they did receive minor harassment via email, there

were no counter-protestors in sight Saturday morning. As a precautionary measure, two Milwaukee Police Department squad cars tailed the march.

The organizers expressed appreciation for the police and their cooperation.

There may be more marches in the future, but currently Vance and Nordstrum do not have anything planned.

Vance and Nordstrum said they are hoping for peace and solidarity in the coming days.

ABE from page 1

Now-President Adam Kouhel to appoint new EVP “It’s good for everyone to see a newcomer get it.”

A somber mood quickly settled in when Ortiz Tapia publicly resigned at the end of MUSG’s weekly full-body meeting. The senate immediately began working toward the future, swearing in now-President Adam Kouhel immediately following the meeting.

Kouhel said the swift transition came as a surprise.

“I’m looking to fulfill the promises that (Abe and I) campaigned on,” Kouhel said.

He said his first actions as president will revolve around choosing a new EVP. He will do so with the counsel of the executive board, and he said his priority is to get an EVP with experience as they approach the crux of the budgeting season.

“I’m looking forward to being right there alongside everyone as they make a difference,” Kouhel said.

Kouhel, a junior in the College of Business Administration, began as a student Senator for

McCormick Hall. He says he joined MUSG the first week because he wanted to help people.

“As executive vice president, (Adam) had to focus a lot on the internal details,” Senator J.R. O’Rourke said. “Now he’ll have more opportunities to focus on broader goals. Adam has had a lot of big ideas.”

There is a great deal of optimism moving forward for MUSG, although the farewell to the former president will be a hard one.

“Abe puts his whole heart into everything he does,” said O’Rourke.

His plans for the future are not set in stone. Ortiz Tapia said aside from joining the workforce, he is considering joining the Jesuit Volunteer Corps. “(Service) was the most influential part of my Marquette education,” the former president said. “We have to be men and women for others.”

“I’ll miss him,” Krajewski said.

Crime breakdown of winter break Majority of issues include burglary, theft from vehicle

By Clara Janzen

clara.janzen@marquette.edu

The Marquette University Police Department responded to 53 incidents during winter break, 17 of which occurred on campus and 10 involved people associated with Marquette.

Marquette Police Chief Paul Mascari said the amount of incidents made the break “pretty quiet” for MUPD. There were multiple days in which no incidents were reported, and other days that had exclusively off-campus incidents.

The largest category type was theft, with 10 incidents. There were a total of seven incidents involving motor vehicles; five thefts from a car, one theft of a car, and one incident of vandalism to a car.

There were two burglary cases, along with two robbery cases, none of which occurred on campus. Additionally, there was one report of sexual assault involving two students that occurred off campus, and one complaint of online harassment.

Looking ahead Mascari and Captain Jeff Kranz said MUPD’s mission

remains consistent with previous semesters. The department will continue to protect students and the surrounding community, taking action only when a threat presents itself.

“We’re not the beer police,” Mascari said. “It is our philosophy that student behavioral issues are best dealt with at the conduct level.”

University President Michael Lovell announced in his Jan. 18 presidential address that robberies are down 28 percent and burglaries are down 53 percent since the transition from the Department of Public Safety to MUPD in May 2015.

Following Lovell’s announcement, Kranz was asked what MUPD will do to make sure burglaries and robberies remain lower. “The plan for the rest of the school year is business as usual,” he said.

Taser/body camera update A somewhat controversial step taken at the beginning of last year to help with that goal of deterrence was to make tasers available to MUPD officers.

So far, the tasers have received minimal use. “They’ve only been deployed two times since we got them,” Kranz said.

Both Mascari and Kranz said tasers have been useful in helping the force in their goal of deescalat-

A person not affiliated with Marquette was approached by three unknown subjects in the 2200 block of W. Wisconsin Avenue between 3:45 a.m. and 3:55 a.m.

One of the subjects displayed a weapon. The subjects fled without obtaining any property. The victim sustained minor injuries.

Scott Walker visits College Republicans meeting Wis. governor talks importance of MU, youth voter turnout

By Clara Janzen

clara.janzen@marquette.edu

The Marquette University College Republicans started their first general meeting of the year with a packed room and special guest—Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker.

Walker was once a student activist himself, and attended Marquette University for a time in the late 80s. There are disagreements as to why the future governor left the university shy of graduation, but one thing is clear: his time here was spent climbing the ranks of MUSG and building a political platform for himself.

His 1988 campaign for MUSG president, although unsuccessful, brought out record

student voter turnout. Following his departure from Marquette, he worked for a few years before mounting a 1993 run for state legislature.

When asked why Walker is a role model and someone the club wanted to have come speak, club vice-chair Elizabeth Michels, sophomore in the College of Communication, said, “I believe that Walker really encompasses the ideal Republican, he really believes in Wisconsin, he puts Wisconsin first and he exemplifies his beliefs and faith in all that he does.”

The governor gave a fifteen minute speech in which he stressed the importance of student organizations, such as the Marquette College Republicans. He thanked the club for all their hard work in recent local, state and national elections.

“We couldn’t have done it without the youth vote,”

Walker said in reference to the recent Republican wins in elections nationwide.

Wisconsin native, club member and Marquette senior in the College of Arts & Sciences Brian Lander said, “I’ve seen the entire process of Scott Walker being elected and elected again, and I’ve always looked up to him since I’ve seen him the past eight years of my life … he’s a really big role model for the working class in Wisconsin.”

There are now more people employed in Wisconsin than ever before in history, according to Walker. “The track you’re on here at Marquette … you can actually get a job,” he said of the opportunities created by a Marquette education.

When asked post-speech what his advice was for students pursuing political careers, he said, “I think one of the best things, I learned it here

when I was at Marquette, was get involved.” He stressed the importance of volunteering for

candidates and again thanked the students in attendance for their hard work.

Behind the Badge: Officer talks race relations Did being in the Marines impact the way you view race?

The Marine Corps teaches to see everybody green (due to the camouflage color). It doesn’t matter what race, creed, ethnicity, gender—nothing matters, especially in combat. In combat, everything that matters is the guy on the left and the guy on the right, and that’s it.

Officer Hernandez identifies as cop, American, human

By Ryan Patterson

ryan.patterson@marquette.edu

The topic of police and race is tense and complicated across the nation, and Milwaukee is no exception when it comes to struggling to navigate police relations.

The civil unrest in Sherman Park last August followed the fatal shooting of 23-year-old Sylville Smith by a Milwaukee police officer. The unrest was part of a tumultuous summer that included deaths of racial minorities during interactions with police officers and the killing of five officers in Dallas.

Daniel Hernandez was a Marquette public safety officer for more than five years before becoming a police officer in May 2015 with the creation of the Marquette University Police Department.

Hernandez discussed his background, similarities between the Marine Corps and law enforcement and how his Mexican race and ethnicity affect the interactions he has while on the job.

edited and condensed. A longer version can be found online at marquettewire.org.

Did you know people growing up who had negative or positive interactions with officers?

Yeah, absolutely. I had a lot of cousins, still do actually, have cousins in gangs in East L.A., and coming from a Hispanic background, growing up in East L.A., that’s what was popular. If you weren’t part of a gang, you were questioned, you were peer pressured into it. I was lucky enough at the time for my parents to relocate before I got really heavy into gangs and stuff. One of my

cousins was shot in the head because of a gang rivalry, so I was definitely exposed to that life a little bit. But as far as law enforcement, they were always getting in trouble with the law.

So you were in the Marine Corps for 12 years?

I did active and reserve time and was an infantry marine. So a lot of the experience as an infantry marine can be very easily rolled into law enforcement. I initially applied for Milwaukee Police Department, but they were on a hiring freeze, so the next best thing was Marquette.

Have police shootings and other events in the news made you more cautious or aware of your job when you’re approaching a traffic stop?

The police academy does teach you a lot, but it isn’t until you hit the street and actually do it that you start to notice different things around you, and because of that you’re just continuously keeping yourself aware. It’s a very vulnerable spot to walk up to a vehicle and not look at who’s behind you.

But that’s why we have backup for every stop.

Have you noticed your race impacting community interactions, be it a traffic stop or something else?

There’s been several instances where my race does affect a traffic stop, whether it be positive or negative. I’ve approached vehicles where, when they roll down the window they say, ‘Why are you stopping me?’ And I say, ‘Well, this is who I am, the reason I’m stopping you is because you ran a red light.’ And they say, ‘No you’re only stopping me because of my color. You’re Caucasian, all of you are the same.’

And I’m like, ‘Wait a minute, let’s hold off a second. You see this last name (on my uniform), it says Hernandez, and I’m Mexican, not Caucasian. I don’t want you to get it confused here. It has nothing to do with race, it has to do with the violation that just occurred.’

Do you think of yourself as a Mexican-American police officer or just a police officer?

No, I’m an American. I’m a police officer. I’m a human being like you’re a human being. When we do policing, it has everything to do with a violation, or if there is a problem. If somebody has a problem they can’t fix, who do they call? The police.

What kind of conversations does the Marquette police department have about race?

Not a lot of conversation among officers regarding race. We do receive extensive diversity training. I feel like, at least for me as a human being, we’re all humans.

The diversity training that not only the department, but Marquette as an employer provides, I think is good.

What is the most common misconception that people have of officers, or something that people should know?

As far as misconceptions, I just really want people to understand that just because I wear this uniform doesn’t mean I’m not human. I bleed, cry and eat the same way you do. We’re no different; we’re not robots.

Service learning expanded to those abroad Online course to aid students who seek service overseas

By Matt Harte

matthew.harte@marquette.edu

The Office of International Education is offering new opportunities in service learning for the spring semester.

OIE developed a new online course for students studying abroad. Service learning involves a combination of instruction and volunteer charity work and is offered at many study abroad locations. Participants can connect to students in different countries to discuss how social issues in their respective country compare.

Jessica Lothman, a study abroad coordinator, said the program is part of an attempt to further develop service learning around the globe. “Engaging in service is definitely global,” Lothman said.

“Students can enroll in an online course while they’re abroad that facilitates reflection on global issues through a cultural lens. They can also compare and discuss their experiences in one country with students in another country.”

The online course was

developed in collaboration with Marquette’s Service Learning Program and Center for Teaching and Learning. The course counts for three credits and also includes domestic students.

“There’s a lot of social justice issues that are global and students will often go abroad and see those issues, but not want to recognize them in their own backyard,” Lothman said. “Making that localglobal connection and seeing what one individual can do locally to impact global issues is something our office is really committed to.”

186 Marquette students are studying abroad this semester, an increase from 101 students that studied abroad during the fall 2016 semester. Lothman said the numbers are very consistent with previous years, which have also seen an increase in students during spring semester.

Katherine Berlin, a senior in the College of Arts & Sciences, said she saw this semester as a good opportunity to study abroad in Chile.

Berlin chose a Spanish-speaking country because of prior education in Spanish and an interest in Latin America. She is taking a required Spanish class and is considering service learning opportunities, but

won’t know her schedule until she arrives. She said she hopes to integrate herself in Chilean culture while there.

“I really hope to create a life for myself there, (and) that I would become part of the host culture instead of feeling like a tourist,” Berlin said.

She said that while her family is supportive, there’s a level of nervousness that comes with spending a long period out of the country.

“My mom in particular is concerned about how I’m going to be spending five months away,” Berlin said. “My family is planning on visiting too, which I think will be a good experience. It would be hard to go five months without seeing any family.”

Berlin is also experiencing a less traditional location than many Marquette study abroad students, who often stick to locations in Europe and Australia. “Whenever students go to Latin America, Asia, the Middle East or Africa, I think any of those locations are nontraditional and kind of exciting for students to think outside the box,” Lothman said.

College of Communication, has studied abroad twice. She studied in Milan, Italy as a sophomore and Thailand during her junior year. Gregg said students should push themselves to be active while studying abroad.

“You’re going to a new country, you’re going to want to savor every moment,” Gregg said. “Don’t

just sit in your apartment. Definitely take full advantage of all your days.”

Tuition hikes consistent with previous years Board of Trustees approves $1,330 increase Jan. 23

By McKenna Oxenden

mckenna.oxenden@marquette.edu

The university announced Jan. 23 in a news brief that the Board of Trustees approved a tuition increase of $1,330 for the 2017-’18 academic year.

The 3.5 percent increase is on par with those in the past

several years. Rates for professional studies, summer school and part-time students will not increase.

“I understand how much your children mean to you, and the significant sacrifices

that families make to invest in their education,” university President Michael Lovell said in the news brief. “As an institution, we know that we must do everything we can to deliver value on that invest-

ment. We do this by providing students with the skills and perspective necessary to build a career and live a well-rounded, rewarding life. We are inspired in that mission by the Catholic, Jesuit tradition that has guided us since 1881.”

Lovell also said next year the university will “significantly boost” its financial aid budget and provide over $146 million in aid and scholarships to students.

Other 2017-’18 changes include a recreation and wellness fee passed through a student government referendum earlier this year.

The board also approved the following graduate and professional program tuition schedules for 2017-’18: A per-credit increase of $25 for students in the Graduate School and Graduate School of Management A per-credit increase of $20 for graduate students in the College of Education An annual tuition increase of $2,000 for students in the School of Dentistry An annual tuition increase of $1,300 for full-time students at Marquette Law School

Hackathon sets record attendance number Participants work to make difference in elderly lives

By Matt Harte

matthew.harte@marquette.edu

One hundred sixty students competed to solve real-world engineering problems and develop presentations at Marquette’s third annual Hackathon.

This record number of participants was a significant increase compared to the previous two Hackathons, each of which had about 100 participants. Students worked in groups to troubleshoot challenges involved in improving the lives of the elderly.

The event was sponsored by Milwaukee company Direct Supply and held in Engineering Hall. Direct Supply provides healthcare equipment and other services to senior living communities. Company President and CEO Bob Hillis said

students at Hackathon were working on industry problems.

“We are serving 21 million seniors in America who are aging,” Hillis said. “You get a crack today at changing the lives of people, and I’ll bet some ideas come out of here that really go the distance.”

Hackathon participants were given about 12 hours to develop their solutions, and prizes were presented to the top groups. The presentations involved challenges in healthcare innovation and data analysis. Direct Supply employees walked around to guide groups.

David Vitale, a senior in the College of Engineering, performed in his second Hackathon. He said that the event represents a unique experience compared to the school projects he usually works on.

“A lot of engineering classes can get boring, but this is a fun design competition,” Vitale said. “You get a lot of creative freedom, like someone that’s been an engineer

for many years. It’s rewarding to start and finish something in one day.”

“

A lot of engineering classes can get boring, but this is a fun design competition.”

DAVID VITALE Senior, College of Engineering

James Schroeder, a graduate student in the College of Engineering, said he participated to win the competition, and potentially network with industry professionals.

“We need to come up with an idea and make it marketable and sellable,” Schroeder said.

“You have to think outside the box. It’s more about application than theoretical thinking.”

University President Michael Lovell addressed the crowd before the competition. Lovell said he sees Marquette’s partnership with Direct Supply as a framework for the university’s future collaborations. “(Direct Supply) is such a great partner for us,” Lovell said. “When we think about how we want to move forward as an institution, we’re going to do it by working with others, particularly bringing handson, real-world experiences to our students.”

Lovell said the Hackathon is also an opportunity that can guide students in the future.

“To the students, obviously, you’re going to get a great experience,” he said. “When you think about how you’re going to give yourself the skills you need to be successful in the future, it’s doing activities like this where you’re working on real world problems. Most importantly, you’re going to be doing things that make a difference in the lives of others.”

Chris Procak, a senior in the College of Engineering, was part of the winning team for the data analysis challenge.

The team was given information about several nursing facilities and the group had to determine which facility was performing best based on the information presented.

“Basically, we wanted to predict which facility would be five-star rated,” Procak said. “We worked on each facility’s data sets individually.

We thought having different perspectives would increase our efficiency and chance of finding the facility that was working best.”

The winning team received a prize of $1,500 to be shared among the six group members.

Procak said the group was extremely excited about their win. “There was a lot of yelling and jumping around,” he said.

“We all went up as a big mob, we were pretty fired up.”

Students, faculty adjust to new email system During winter break MU shifted to Microsoft 365

By Jackson Dufault

jackson.dufault@marquette.edu

The university’s email system recently switched to a new platform, the Microsoft Office 365 Cloud.

Marquette’s Information Technology services issued an alert via email Jan. 5 that all campus emails would be migrating onto a new platform starting Jan. 9. This followed two news briefs by IT Services Dec. 5 and Dec. 12.

Danny Smith, the deputy chief information officer, said the new platform will allow for the implementation of add-ons.

“They’re little things that might make your life better,”

Smith said.

He mentioned that one of these add-ons will be a system that automatically adds the delivery date of a package ordered from Amazon onto a student’s calendar.

Smith also said students and faculty will now have over 50 gigabytes of space in their inboxes.

This is a drastic increase from its previous size, with students having 2.5 gigabytes and faculty having six gigabytes. Smith also said

this size could increase to 100 gigabytes in the future.

Jame Schaefer, an associate theology professor, said she experienced difficulty with logging into the new system from her home.

“After the migration the week before classes began, I was unable to access my mail through Microsoft Office, my preferred mail software, from my home computer,” Schaefer said

in an email.

Schaefer also said that the directions for Microsoft Office users on the ITS website failed several times.

“When I phoned Help Desk, I learned that the technicians were restricted to dealing with Marquette computers so could not help me with the computer in my home,” Schaefer said.

Schaefer said after following ITS’s directions while on campus, Microsoft Office’s email system worked “smoothly.”

Schaefer also said the increase of inbox space in the update will help in the future.

“Apparently some researchers need more space for their projects and for teaching, so ITS was accommodating that need and anticipating more,” Schaefer said. “Because my account had already been increased to 10 gigabytes to accommodate one of my research projects, I did not anticipate the need for more in the near future.”

Sarah Brand, a sophomore in the College of Education, said she almost missed out on an internship opportunity because she was unable to log into the new email system.

“It wasn’t working on my phone or online,” Brand said.

“I only noticed there was an issue with my phone when I noticed I didn’t get an email for two weeks.”

College of Education enrollment declining Current trend a factor nationwide, hits Midwest hard

By Kristina Lazzara

kristina.lazzara@marquette.edu

Marquette saw a major drop in enrollment to the College of Education in fall 2014, and it has been gradually decreasing since.

The university is currently working on ways to recruit new education majors to fill these future positions through media campaigns to alleviate negative perceptions about teachers.

Despite these efforts, the College of Education enrolled 36 freshmen this year, down from 88 students in 2012.

“This isn’t just a dip in enrollment but a downward trend if nothing is done soon,” said Kirsten Lathrop, director of field placements and licensure at Marquette and former Milwaukee Public School educator for 18 years, said about the fall 2016 enrollment numbers.

This phenomenon affected many, causing school districts to have difficulty filling preschool-12 teaching positions.

“This is an issue that has

school superintendents and principles deeply concerned,” William Henk, dean of the College of Education, said.

According to research by the Public Policy Forum report, “Help Wanted: An Analysis of the Public School Teacher Pipeline in Greater Milwaukee,” enrollments in Wisconsin teacher preparation programs are down 27.9 percent.

Nationwide, enrollments are down 35.3 percent.

Teachers are in a better economic situation, especially Milwaukee Public Schools, and are competing with other schools to rapidly hire qualified candidates.

Yet, they aren’t enough teachers to fill every position available.

“Teaching in an urban environment is heroic work,” Henk said.

“It can drain you physically from working with these kids that have acute learning needs.”

There are different theories as to this nationwide decrease in qualified teaching professionals.

One argument is that students are advised to steer away from a career in education by their parents, peers or even current teachers in the field.

Another idea is that teachers are leaving the field faster than others can be trained to fill those empty positions.

“More than a quarter of the teaching workforce in Metro Milwaukee is over age 50; as this group ages, departures are likely to become more numerous,” according to the same analysis from the Public Policy Forum.

Henk said when the 2008 economic recession hit, many teachers were ready for retirement.

“In about five or six years the economy recovered and they’re ready to retire,” Henk said. “There’s going to be an exodus from the profession that’s

unprecedented. The likes of which American education has never seen.”

Aside from retirement, many teachers leave for money or family obligations.

“Students didn’t initially go into teaching (at Marquette) because of salary and parental influence,” Tina McNamara, assistant dean for undergraduate advising and student services, said. “It’s really hard work, you really need to have this affinity to work with children.”

“I think that definitely in the media there is a shift in people’s perception of teaching as a profession,” Lathrop said.

Another concept is working to establish future teacher organizations in local high schools.

“Teaching is a really hard job and it can take a toll on you as a professional,” Henk said.

“There’s challenges that go along with having the responsibility of helping to form students into the best versions of themselves they can be.”

The 411: Lovell Presidential Address breakdown Promises made during addresses usually maintained

By Matthew Martinez

matthew.martinez@marquette.edu

Jan. 18, University President Michael Lovell issued his third Presidential Address. The annual speech is the president’s main line for announcing new projects and general news about the university.

In his most recent address, announcements focused on a new grocery store, the naming of the new residence hall honoring former university president Rev. Robert Wild

and the plans for a BioDiscovery district to name a few.

For the most part, Lovell has been pretty consistent with translating what he says into action.

The president promised during his 2015 address to move the Kohler Center from the fourth floor of the 707 Building to the first floor to create more interest. By the time he made his 2016 address, the move was approved.

Lovell decided to commission a full police force during his 2015 address. By 2016 the university had statistics supporting large percentile drops in crime across the board, including a 64 percent dip in thefts and a 58

percent decline in battery and assault cases.

In his 2015 address, the president expressed interest in the Global Water Center in Walker’s Point. By his 2016 address, he announced the university’s integration into the Global Water Center.

Increasing research was a focus during Lovell’s 2015 address. By 2016, Marquette moved up a Carnegie classification from a Doctoral Research University to a Doctoral Higher Research University. Marquette also increased the number of invention disclosures relative to that time of year from five to 11.

The focal point

throughout all his addresses, though, has seemed to be the Master Plan. The Master Plan was finalized in October 2016 after taking feedback from the entire Marquette community into consideration.

The Master Plan includes several construction projects, including Wild Hall being built across from O’Donnell Hall. According to Chris Jenkins, associate director of university communication, and Lora Strigens, vice president for planning and strategy, there is also a new BioDiscovery district in the works which will involve building new structures as well as updating some of the old structures.

In his 2016 address, the president hinted there might be some renovations in the Schroeder Complex and Wehr Physics buildings. These renovations have not been completed as of yet, but Strigens has assured the community to trust in the process. These renovations may be part of the Master Plan down the road, and could take anywhere from 10-20 years to truly enact.

President Lovell has a fairly pristine record as far as these addresses go. Time will tell if his consistency will extend through the most recent address.

Techniques for confidence New theater class teaches musical audition strategies

them to bring who they are, their truth, their voice to share through song ... (that’s) the goal for me,” Clarke said.

The class focuses on vocal technique and audition preparation. Throughout the course, students focus on two audition pieces to add to their repertoire. With practice, repetition and feedback, students develop not only the instrument of their voice, but the ability to use it to its full dynamic potential.

“I (was) aware of her directing style, which often speaks to an individual’s teaching method,” Hudson-Mairet said.

Students are excited for the opportunity to work with Clarke to improve their audition skills.

Lindsay Webster, a sophomore in the College of Communication, said she enjoys the personalized attention to detail that comes from a smaller class size. “Everyone is really comfortable with each other, and Niffer is very welcoming and extremely knowledgeable,” Webster said. “We really get the chance to know other people’s voices and then learn off of constructive criticism.”

When making bold acting choices to nail an audition, confidence is key and practice is essential.

Audition Performance Technique, a 1.25-hour-long seminar on Tuesdays and Thursdays, teaches students how to prepare for auditions.

Jennifer (Niffer) Clarke, a professional actress, director and educator who has graced the Marquette stage in years past, developed the class in collaboration with theater department staff.

Clarke discussed the idea of a seminar with department chair, Stephen HudsonMairet. Because she had already worked with the department to direct both the spring and fall musicals during 2015, Hudson-Mairet was more than happy to bring her back.

“There was a desire amongst our students to increase their exposure to musical theater training,” HudsonMairet said. “Over the past few years, it’s been through private voice lessons or other such things – this course is an extension of this initiative.”

Clarke has performed and educated throughout the U.S. for over thirty years. In that time, she created a workshop called “Acting the Song,” which she presented to both professional and college-aged performers.

Based on her own experience on both sides of the audition table, her goal is to give performers a new perspective as they approach Top: photo by Yue Yin yue.yin@marquette.edu Bottom: courtesy of Niffer Clarke. their musical pieces.

Golden Seagull soars with ridiculous stories Satirical news site proves entertaining among students

By Brendan Attey

brendan.attey@marquette.edu

Dec. 19, one of the Marquette LIMOs finally made their way to Raynor Library where they picked up Ben Jansen. Jansen, relieved to see the LIMO team, had been waiting there since approximately Aug. 29.

Before you panic and alert the head of the Marquette LIMO service, consider the source.

This story came from Marquette’s satirical news website, the Golden Seagull.

The website launched last summer, and members of its original six-person team hope they can provide some fresh humor and inside jokes for Marquette students, mirroring content from satire publications such as The Onion.

“We have a growing number of writers right now,” Jimmy Starke, a senior in the College of Arts Sciences and writer for the site said. “Anyone that’s

interested in writing articles for us can get involved.”

While the site has gained attention recently, Starke explained that many of the writers just do it for pure enjoyment. Outrageous headlines, coupled with no lack of photoshopped images are entertaining for readers and contributors alike.

“It’s just something that we all enjoy doing. I don’t know if anyone plans on doing it for a living,” Starke said. “We all just have group meetings and come up with funny ideas for headlines, and (our editor) always does an amazing job with the Photoshops, so it’s a lot of fun for us.”

The team runs stories that are relevant to life on campus and to students as a whole. For example, following the heated November presidential election, one popular article reported that Thanksgiving family dinners were shaping up to be especially civil that year.

Some of the staff members only write for the Golden Seagull, while others write for the Marquette Wire or other websites as well. Regardless,

Golden Seagull’s Top 5 Twitter Stories “President Lovell drops out of Rio Olympics”

“Junior buys PS4 instead of food”

the writers are excited that their story views have been climbing in recent months.

“The website itself can actually be tricky to get to, so social media is our biggest outlet to get content out,” Starke said. “The Golden Seagull has its own Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook page where they’ll post all the headlines for new articles with links to the real site.”

While the site gains

attention, many students have opinions on the Seagull’s outrageous headlines.

“I think they’re pretty funny,” Jessica Kathe, a sophomore in the College of Health Sciences said. “Most of the time it’s just cool to see specific inside jokes and references to Marquette, and you know exactly what they’re talking about because you’ve probably already seen it before on campus.”

Jake Champe, a sophomore in the College of Business Administration, touched on the same point.

“I just like that they do Marquette-centric content,” Champe said. “Rather than try and do content from all around the news, they just do stuff Marquette students will relate to.”

Custom filters populate campus hotspots Personalized geotag designs spice up Snapchats

By Hailey Richards

hailey.richards@marquette.edu

From beautiful views to art, food and ridiculous selfies, Snapchat captures it all. Before posting to a Snapstory and inevitably making all your followers jealous of your activities, you have to swipe right to add a little something — a Geofilter.

Geofilters are essentially location illustrations, allowing followers to see where you took a photo or video. From events to people and places, Geofilters capture the essence of the location, or occasion, while still allowing the viewer to focus on the actual Snapchat.

Community filters, if approved by Snapchat, are free and

accessible to everyone within the area.

On campus there are Geofilters for every dormitory and a few buildings, such as the AMU, Church of the Gesu and Raynor Memorial libraries.

Anyone can make a community filter for everyone to enjoy if approved. The local Gesu filter was created by Annah Horst, a sophomore in the College of Communication.

“I sketched out some ideas of what came to mind when I thought of Gesu and the stained glass concept stuck with me,” Horst said. “It was very tedious because I had to create every little triangle and shape and color each a specific color, but in the end it was very rewarding to see all of my friends using my filter.”

On the Snapchat website, step-by-step directions give templates and guidelines to create your own filter.

There are many ways to

create a personalized filter, but programs like Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop have templates that are easy to work with and help illustrate conceptual ideas.

For Audra Stasiukevicius, a senior in the College of Engineering, the pre-made templates from Snapchat made it easier to personalize and share.

“We really wanted to make a unique filter with pictures that we found, but it was too difficult because we couldn’t make the background transparent,” Stasiukevicius said. “We ended up using a filter that was already available on Snapchat and added our own words and designs. We wrote the names of the birthday girls, or the name of our specific party on top of it.”

Although the Snapchat website offers simple directions and templates to create the filter, the difficult part is not the design itself, but rather the guidelines Snapchat provides.

According to Cristina Petrella, a senior in the College of Business Administration, those wishing to create a filter can’t upload any image from Google because of possible copyright infringement.

Original designs and photos listed under public domain, however, are up for grabs.

“Before they charge you for the Geofilter, Snapchat has to approve your filter,” Petrella said.

“They will send you an email (usually within a day or two) before they charge you.”

Once Snapchat approves of the filter, it all comes down to the price and location.

According to Ben Dombrowski, a junior in the College of Communication, the price can fluctuate. One of the price factors is how large the geofence is.

A geofence is an area where the user wants the Geofilter to be seen, and keeping this contained to a specific area can help cut costs.

“Basically, the larger the geofence and the longer the time you want it to run, the more expensive it is,” Dombrowski said. “Snapchat filters can be cheap and absolutely worth it if you know how to draw the geofence and choose the running time.

Dombrowski has created multiple Snapchat filters (including one for a “Hippie vs. Hipsters” party he hosted). For about $15, the filter ran from 8pm to 3am around his Renee Row apartment and campus bars.

The best way to cut filter costs, according to Dombrowski, is to draw the geofence so that it wraps around only the necessary area.

“When making a Snapchat filter, think about the people who would use it,” Dombrowski said.

“The goal is clearly to get people to use the filter. So, when you design a filter, ask yourself if it is a filter that you yourself would use. Get feedback from friends, and then submit.”

Lovell’s announcements merit mixed feelings

Photo by Andrew Himmelberg andrew.himmelberg@marquette.edu

University President Michael Lovell announced the new residence hall will bear the Rev. Robert A. Wild’s name and the “Grocery Challenge” will aim to bring a grocer to campus.

In classic Lovell fashion, the university president had two major announcements for attendants of his third annual presidential address Wednesday, Jan. 18. One called for celebration; the other discussed an ongoing campus issue.

The most exciting news was that the freshman residence hall being constructed on 17th and Wells streets will be named after the Rev. Robert A. Wild, S.J., university president from 1996 to 2011 and fall 2013 to July 2014. For the building that thousands of future first-year students will one day call home, it is fitting to honor a man whose efforts improved our university tremendously.

Wild is often remembered as a fundraising whiz. Under him, Marquette received hundreds of millions of dollars in donations for student scholarships and major development projects that continue to benefit campus today, including the Al McGuire

Center, Raynor Library, Engineering Hall and Eckstein Hall.

During Wild’s presidency, university athletics joined the BIG EAST conference and undergraduate enrollment increased exponentially.

Wild’s 2015 honorary degree from Marquette calls him “a champion for increasing access.” Thanks to so many scholarship funds raised under him and a student body of more than 20 percent first-generation students, “his legacy is the students.” On Wednesday, Lovell called him a “beloved figure” here at Marquette, and we most certainly agree.

The legacy Wild has left on Marquette will affect generations of future students. Names like Victor McCormick, Walter Schroeder and Josephine Hallman Mashuda probably hold little meaning for us, but hopefully this new Wild residence hall will promote remembrance of and respect for a person who

greatly helped make this university what it is today, especially for us who are living and learning here now.

Lovell’s other major announcement Wednesday addressed the lack of a grocery store on or near campus. Unfortunately, his introduction of the “Grocery Challenge” leaves students asking the same questions we have had for years and offers no concrete answers.

Lovell noted that this issue has been a major concern since the beginning of his presidency in 2014, and the Marquette community has expressed frustrations about it for years. In fact, a 2009 Marquette Tribune staff editorial said that according to Alderman Robert Bauman, there hadn’t been a grocery store on or within a mile of campus for 25 years, and thenassistant to the vice president in the Office of Administration Mike Whittow said it had been the number one request from

the campus community for the past 10 years.

During Lovell’s speech, he appeared dedicated to and hopeful about finding “a fresh food access solution” through this initiative in the coming months, but vague phrases like “soliciting ideas” and “pilot programs” made it clear that this big announcement really tells us nothing new. It’s still uncertain exactly how the university will solve this problem.

Marquette is not unique in its need of a reasonably priced fresh food source. In recent years, UW-Madison and University of Minnesota have had similar struggles, with a common complaint being that expensive but convenient corner stores – like our own Walgreens and 7-Eleven – need competition.

What is unique, however, to the food desert surrounding Marquette, is that it also surrounds an extremely impoverished neighborhood. Like us students, many of our neighbors lack access to a vehicle that makes grocery shopping easy.

With the nearest Pick ‘n Save closing last semester, those without cars are forced to walk to Walgreens or 7-Eleven. Furthermore, many of those in our community rely on food stamps to feed their families. Walgreens and 7-Eleven accept SNAP, Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, more commonly known as food stamps, but neither store provides adequate options for feeding a family, never

mind a college student.

This university has real power to improve, develop and help this area of the city, and it is our mission as a Jesuit school to bring a fresh food source here, not as a campus amenity but as a staple of the wider community.

Our neighborhood needs this, and students deserve it as well.

The university should immediately enact short term solutions to help students, like starting a LIMO service to Metro Market or revamping the MUSG-sponsored fresh food basket program. But the real “Grocery Challenge” Marquette faces is to rid our neighborhood of the food desert label it has had for years. Hopefully, those working on the initiative will keep this ultimate goal in mind and start making decisions and changes as soon as possible.

New location won’t Hasty ACA action will cost lives solve Chargers’ woes Ryan McCarthy Breaking up is hard to do. In Baltimore, there are still fans bitter with Jim Irsay for moving the Colts out in the dead of night nearly 35 years ago. In Cleveland, the name Art Modell still draws invectives, and even the Rams’ move last year from St. Louis to Los Angeles was not without controversy. Naturally, when you leave after 55 years together, like the Chargers and the city of San Diego, things are bound to get uncomfortable.

Most of the commentary surrounding San Diego’s move north to Los Angeles focuses on the shortsightedness of the decision.

Critics point to the inadequate StubHub Center, the Chargers’ and Rams’ shared venue that seats just over a third of most modern NFL stadiums, as well as the city of Los Angeles’ lukewarm reaction to the news that a new franchise was coming to town.

There is little evidence that the Chargers will find success or enthusiastic fans in L.A., although the team’s value will certainly increase regardless. The real story is the comically poor fashion with which the Chargers organization handled the transition.

The decision to release the Chargers’ new L.A. logo the same day as the decision to move was announced was an overt sign of disrespect toward San Diego. It also didn’t help that the logo was so universally reviled online that the team promptly removed it.

The Spanos family, who owns the Chargers, did not leave San Diego on good terms. Tension boiled over and former fans burned memorabilia and drove by the team’s offices honking their horns. One San Diego man even filmed himself throwing eggs at Chargers Park. Any hopes of San Diego fans sticking with the team after the move were squelched.

If burning every bridge in San Diego was not unfortunate enough, there was no one waiting in L.A. to welcome the team.

Sure, the mayor of Inglewood introduced the team in a press

“

conference, but there was a huge missed opportunity to partner with local brands and established L.A. sports teams like the Lakers or Dodgers to give the move legitimacy. Some cities offer parades to franchises that move. The Chargers were given a dull press conference where their new coach opened with “I’m so proud to be the head coach of the San Di… L.A. Chargers. Oops.”

It seems that the best solution for Dean Spanos might have been to leave the Chargers’ history in San Diego, retire the team name and start as a new organization with L.A. as its home.

They’ve managed to maintain a brand that their new market doesn’t care about while alienating the only people predisposed to supporting the team.

San Diego is not too small a market to support multiple professional league sports teams.

Cities like P i t t s b u rg h and Baltimore are smaller, yet their teams receive higher levels of support due to their interaction and investment in their communities. Now, in a city where they may be the fifth most popular football team behind the Rams, Raiders, UCLA and USC, the Chargers will need to work harder than any other team in professional football to build and foster a following through community engagement.

It seems that the real problem with the Chargers was never their location, but weak ownership and an undisciplined culture. Teams as historically bad as the Browns are not supernaturally unlucky — they lack leaders with clearly defined goals who can execute their vision. The Chargers risk falling into a spiral where they lack success and a fanbase. How can you build fan support in a successobsessed town like Los Angeles without winning?

Moving to a city that is at best indifferent to your franchise is tough enough, but the execution of the Chargers’ move did the organization no favors.

Morgan Hughes I have a five-inch scar that runs across the right side of my neck, which I’ve had since my freshman year of high school.

It starts below my chin and falls down diagonally, halting immediately above my collar bone. A necessary deformity.

The ENT surgeon who performed the procedure that created the scar did a fine job, and was compensated appropriately. He was paid — not out of my pocket, not through a private insurance company, but by government aid allocated for the purpose of protecting low-income families. Aid designed to ensure that 14-yearold kids whose parents’ jobs don’t offer health benefits are able to seek medical treatment without forcing their families to take a second mortgage on their homes to pay for it.

Health insurance has never been something I’ve had the luxury of taking for granted. And while many Americans are afforded that privilege, roughly 70 million of us look to governmentallocated funds to keep us from the 21st century equivalent of a debtor’s prison.

Unfortunately for many of us, the newly-instated Trump administration has already taken measures toward removing a crucial component in our collective medical coverage. The Affordable Care Act, also known as the ACA or, more colloquially, Obamacare, expanded Medicaid coverage beginning in 2010, offering government assisted health care to more low-income adults, the exceptionally poor and those with preexisting conditions. That same act is now almost definitely going to be repealed.

While only about 20 million of the 70 million Medicaid subscribers will lose their coverage once Obamacare is repealed, that should be a significant enough number to cause some pause among Republicans voting for the repeal.

My complaint isn’t about Trump. It isn’t about red or blue, party lines or any of that. This is about seeing the human implications of supporting or denouncing policies because of their partisan associations.

Obamacare had a lot of problems, namely the high premiums, which resulted in a lot of Americans opting out of health coverage altogether — myself included.

Because of this, I would be excited to see a replacement that would actually address the issues that exist with the current system.

designations. Even Trump administration Secretary of Health and Human Services and former Republican Georgia Rep. Tom Price has sponsored legislation that has strengthened Medicaid and government assistance programs.

It’s unusual that I would agree with anything Kentucky Republican Rand Paul says, but he is the only Republican who has staunchly refused to vote in favor of the repeal because he doesn’t think an appropriate alternative has been developed.

While I’m sure Sen. Paul and I have different ideas about what an appropriate alternative looks like, at least we can agree that action being taken on this issue is hasty. The only benefit I can see is that once people start to feel the personal repercussions of the repeal, it will cost Republicans the 2020 election.

But issues the public has with the ACA are not the issues Republican officials have with the ACA. On a human level, the repeal is going to hurt a lot of people. It’s safe to assume that once current subscribers no longer qualify for government assistance, some of those subscribers will die, and bankrupt themselves and their loved ones before they do.

When people can’t afford their medication, they don’t buy it. And when people can’t afford treatment, they don’t get treated.

Repealing the ACA is inevitable. Republicans have already pushed for repeal 50 times over the past six years. The issue is how underdeveloped the proposed replacement is. The protections that have made the ACA important to so many Americans have been either significantly reduced or excluded altogether in replacement proposals.

Many Republicans voting to replace and repeal are doing so to comply with partisan

Reinhardt thriving post injury

Guard’s shooting vastly improved in last six games

By Grant Becker

grant.becker@marquette.edu

Late in the first half of Marquette’s massive road win at No. 7 Creighton Saturday Katin Reinhardt went on a 10-0 run entirely by himself, pushing Marquette to a 10-point halftime lead.

“I didn’t even know that was a 10-0 run,” Reinhardt said. “I just did a good job of taking what the defense gave me, they switched their bigs off on me and I got to have a lot of open shots in the first half, and then the second half I did a good job of finding the open guys. I was just taking what the defense gave me the whole game.”

His 10-0 run, secure lategame ball handling and playmaking highlighted the graduate transfer’s best performance of the season. He led the team with a season-high 21 points on 8-for-13 shooting and notched seven assists, matching a career best.

A quick glance at Katin Reinhardt’s game logs from his time at Marquette reveals two different players.

For the first 10 games, he shot above 38 percent in a game just three times.

In the following six games, he shot below 42 percent in a game just once.

During the first 10 games, Reinhardt shot 28.6 percent from 3-point range. In the last six games he’s made 46 percent of his 3-pointers.

He went from averaging nine

points per game on more than eight shots in the first 10 games to scoring almost 15 points per game on just one more shot a game over the next six outings.

When a player’s game changes this dramatically, there’s usually a good explanation. For Reinhardt, his success revolved around health.

He told reporters earlier this month that he’d played on an injured Achilles’ tendon since the team’s preseason scrimmage against Dayton.

“I kind of tweaked it a little bit, but didn’t think anything of it,” Reinhardt said. “The Fresno game (Dec. 6) I was in warmups and made a move, and I felt it, and that’s when it started hurting even more. I sucked it up and tried to play against Wisconsin, and coach talked about keeping me out the rest of the games and having me rest it a little while.”

He sat out the team’s final two non-conference games following the Dec. 10 Wisconsin game. He made his return against Georgetown Dec. 28, but he hadn’t practiced in 17 days and there was plenty of rust to shake off. He went 2-for-6 from the floor, including 0-for-4 from deep, but that’s where the slump ended.

When Marquette went to Seton Hall on New Year’s Day, Reinhardt was a brand new man, draining four of his five 3-point attempts. “(Resting) helped tremendously,” he said after the game.

The former USC and UNLV guard is himself once again.

“I’ve just been staying in the gym,” Reinhardt said. “I know I had a tough preseason, but coach and my teammates have had tremendous faith in what I can do

and I just had to trust that. Now I feel like I’ve gotten into a better flow and I feel a lot more comfortable on the floor.”

Though Reinhardt started the first four games of the season, he’s been coming off the bench ever since, but it doesn’t seem to bother him.

“Whatever we need to do to win,” Reinhardt said. “That’s the main goal, man, is winning.

So whatever we have to do, whatever I have to do, whatever role I have to play, I’ll do it.”

Head coach Steve Wojciechowski clarified what exactly Reinhardt’s role is.

“Katin’s a starter for us, even though he doesn’t start the game,” Wojciechowski said. “More importantly, he’s a finisher.”

He’s not just saying that, ei-

ther. Reinhardt has played at least 25 minutes in each of those six games, including a season high 34 minutes Saturday.

Now that Marquette has a signature win on its resume, a clearer path to the NCAA Tournament and a healthy Reinhardt, the light at the end of the tunnel has certainly gotten brighter for the Golden Eagles.

MUBB hosts No. 1 Villanova Time for tourney Golden Eagles talk for both teams look to build off signature victory

By Grant Becker

grant.becker@marquette.edu

For the third straight game Marquette will take on a team ranked in the top 15. Tonight, the Golden Eagles host No. 1 Villanova.

Marquette gained a bit of confidence after earning a signature victory on the road at t hen-No. 7 Creighton.

“A team of that caliber, just going in and beating them at their house really just gives us a sense of confidence and we have to bring that into tomorrow,” guard Markus Howard said. “We weren’t surprised with the outcome of the game because that’s what we’ve worked for this entire season so we’ve just worked hard, so hard, and we’re going to continue to do that tomorrow.”

Not only is Villanova the No. 1 team in the country, but it’s

been nearly five calendar years since Marquette has defeated the Wildcats. Their most recent contest was a dominant showing for Villanova that the Golden Eagles salvaged with a late flurry of buckets.

“We’ve played pretty well in all BIG EAST games except the Villanova game,” head coach Steve Wojciechowski said. “Certainly they had a hand in that. If you remember, they were coming off their first loss in a long time so they were really ready to play.

Their intensity really knocked us back and we didn’t do the things that we had set out to do, really on either end. And again, they deserve a lot of credit for that. But I think our team can play a lot better at this point in the season.”

“We just didn’t compete hard,” Luke Fischer said. “They got whatever they wanted. I think we were scared.”

Marquette has the best offense in the BIG EAST during conference play per KenPom, but the worst defense. Villanova is second to Marquette in offense and

they’re at the top of the conference in defense.

“They have a great combination of a terrific offense and a great defense,” Wojciechowski said. “With us, we have to take care of the basketball. In the last three games that we’ve played against them they’ve scored over 70 points off our turnovers and we can’t allow that. Defensively, we have to guard the ball a lot better than we’ve been doing against them they’ve really been able to drive us and put us in help situations.”

Villanova (19-1) is riding a fivegame winning streak after suffering its first and only loss of the season to Butler Jan. 4. Josh Hart, a BIG EAST Player of the Year candidate, has scored in the double-digits in every game this season and is coming off a 25-point performance against Providence.

There’s plenty of reasons to be confident about Marquette’s play as of late, but there is no tougher game left on the Golden Eagles’ schedule than this one.

Women’s basketball a No. 9 seed in Charlie Creme’s new bracket.

Matt Unger With a 12-6 record, Marquette men’s basketball was stuck on the bubble in Joe Lunardi’s weekly Bracketology rankings. The Golden Eagles had some solid victories but still lacked a true resumebuilding win that gets the selection committee’s attention.

Against in-state rivals No. 17 Wisconsin, Marquette let a five-point lead evaporate in the second half. Back on Jan. 7, the Golden Eagles couldn’t hang with the No. 1 Villanova Wildcats in Philadelphia.

On Martin Luther King Day, the Blue and Gold squabbled an 18-point lead against No. 13 Butler. Head coach Steve Wojciechowski just couldn’t quite get his squad over the hump.

Marquette finally earned that statement victory this past Saturday down in Omaha.

With seven players in double figures, the Golden Eagles hit the century mark to down No. 7 Creighton 102-94 on national television.

Yes, the Bluejays were playing their first contest without superstar Maurice Watson Jr., who was leading the entire country in assists per game before an ACL injury ended his season. However, the victory is still significant since it’s never an easy to task to leave the CenturyLink Center with a win. The offensive explosion certainly caught Lunardi’s attention as Marquette edged its way into the weekly tournament field for the first time this season as a 12 seed.

Now at 13-6, KenPom is favoring the Golden Eagles in nine of their last 11 games. With five contests still remaining against top-30

KenPom teams, Marquette will have plenty of opportunities to boost their tournament resume. A win against either Villanova, Butler or Xavier could be enough to make March Madness a reality for the first time since 2012.

“The Big Dance” is also looking like a possibility for the women’s team as well.

Head coach Carolyn Kieger’s squad kept the good vibes going on Saturday when they knocked off No. 19 DePaul 102-101 in double overtime on the road.

The victory pushes the Golden Eagles to 16-4 on the year, including a 7-2 record in-conference. With three wins against ranked opponents, Marquette currently sits as a No. 9 seed in Charlie Creme’s latest bracket.

With four of their next six games against opponents with winning percentages at .500 or below, the Golden Eagles should be able piece together a win streak. If they are able to get to the 23 or 24-win mark, it will be tough for the committee to keep the Marquette women out of the National Tournament.

All in all, Saturday was a success for both Marquette basketball teams as each squad knocked off a ranked team on the road. With just over half of conference play remaining, both teams are projected to make it to the big dance in March. However, one bad week could change everything.

Both coaches have made positive strides in their third years here at Marquette. Can they continue the momentum into March? That remains to be seen.

Brown brings sharpshooting to lax staff MLAX

downs Michigan 15-14 in exhibition

Star attackman honing offense’s shot technique

When watching the start of men’s lacrosse practices down at Valley Fields, it’s natural for wandering eyes to zero in on a handful of shots that whiz by at an unusually wicked pace. Marquette goalie Cole Blazer tries his best to keep his save percentage up as he’s peppered with shots, but bigger names than him have failed doing so in the past.

As your eyes move over to the shooter, you might be surprised to see the man firing off these bullets is in a Marquette sweatshirt and sweatpants instead of a uniform. His name is Ryan Brown, the new volunteer assistant coach on head coach Joe Amplo’s staff, and he’s been making goalies look foolish with his quick release and fundamental shooting for years.

“I feel bad for our goalies,” Amplo said. “Cole’s like, ‘Oh crap, Ryan Brown’s warming me up?’”

He hasn’t had his shot measured with a radar gun for a few years, but last time he did, it topped 100 miles per hour. Amplo called it the best shot in the world, so Blazer and the rest of the goalie group are always on their toes during warmups.

“I try not to kill them with shots,” Brown said.

cause his girlfriend is in medical school in Wisconsin, and he was thinking about the benefits of coaching at the time.

He’d be able to stay around the game during the year while still honoring his playing commitments in the summer. He decided to reach out to Amplo to see if there were any opportunities on his staff.

“He said there was a volunteer spot open, so it was perfect,” Brown said.

Now with a few scrimmages under his belt, he’s content with his status. He’s learning on the job and getting a chance to train in the off-season with fellow MLL players, fellow assistant coach Jake Richard and director of lacrosse operations B.J. Grill. His position may be on a volunteer basis, but he’s making some money going to events for Amplo and running clinics with former Duke star and current Hounds teammate Deemer Class.

Plus, he’ll get plenty of time to work on that shot the rest of the winter and spring, which should benefit the goalies in the long run too.

“I hope. It might make them less confident,” Amplo joked.

The men’s lacrosse team started its spring preseason schedule off on the right foot, defeating Michigan 15-14 in a scrimmage Saturday.

Tanner Thomson led the team with four goals, Andy DeMichiei scored three and Ryan McNamara and Noah Richard each scored a pair.

Josh Williamson, Zack Melillo and Jack Zerrillo rounded out the scoring with a goal apiece.

Marquette started a lineup that likely will resemble the starters for the regular season, with defenseman Nick Eufrasio being the major absence.

He’s a near lock to start, so Nick Grill, Jackson Ehlert and Ryan Geller each got a chance to earn one of the remaining two spots.

Joe Dunn, who scored seven goals and one assist in 10 games last season, started at attack in the spot opened up

by Conor Gately’s graduation.

The Golden Eagles scored four goals to start the final frame, storming back from a 12-11 deficit. Michigan scored two goals late, including one in the final 15 seconds, but Marquette was able to hold on.

Following the initial scrimmage, Marquette’s reserves played Denison in an abridged game and lost 12-6.

Marquette has three more scrimmages before the regular season opener against Jacksonville: Feb. 3 against High Point and Feb. 11 against Penn and MSOE. “We’re a young team,” head coach Joe Amplo said.

“We’ve got to give these guys experiences and opportunities to succeed and fail so we can learn.”

Club hockey moving from DIII to DII next season Golden Eagles will compete in NCHL Division of ACHA

By Thomas Salinas

thomas.salinas@marquette.edu

Club hockey is about to get a lot more intense.

Marquette and the North Collegiate Hockey League announced in late December that the Golden Eagles will make the jump to DII next year after spending five seasons playing in DIII. The team remains in the American Collegiate Hockey Association, but are moving up in the hierarchy and quality of play by joining the NCHL. The Golden Eagles previously played DII in 2010 when head coach Will Jurgensen was a player, but Jurgensen admitted the club was not quite ready for that level of competition.

The Golden Eagles current division, the Mid-American Collegiate Hockey Association, also has a DII division, but they decided Marquette wasn’t ready for an immediate jump. The

MACHA voted Marquette could only be a probationary DII team for next season, meaning they could compete with DII teams but could not qualify for the conference championship.

Earlier this season, Marquette was contacted by the NCHL’s commissioner Tom Breunig about joining their league, making a switch in division look like the right choice.

“We were very disappointed that (the MACHA) listed us as a probationary team because we thought we were better than that,” Jurgensen said. “The fact that the NCHL, a great league, already wanted us meant we were gone.”

“Marquette’s tradition of winning fits nicely into our landscape,” Breunig said. “They are a strong program that no team in our league can take lightly.”

During their five-year stint playing at the DIII level, the club has qualified for nationals once and has three straight trips to regionals. So far this season the team is 3-1 against DII teams, having swept Wisconsin and splitting their series against Illinois. The decision was made by Jurgensen

and the players based off their recent success.

“Essentially, we think we are competitive and consistent enough to make that jump and play at the DII level,” Jurgensen said.

The Golden Eagles aren’t the only team making the jump. Aurora and DePaul are also joining the NCHL. The conference plays in the Central Region of the ACHA and will now boast four teams ranked in the top 20 of their region.

Forward Brian Kennedy believes the jump will allow the program to continue to grow.

“We’ll get more recognition and we’ll have to work harder as a team to compete,” Kennedy said.

Jurgensen said the team feels they can compete with anyone at the DII level. At 16-2, most of Marquette’s games this year have been blowouts as the team has 101 goals on the season while only giving up 45. Jurgensen said this will not be the case next year as the level of play will rise.

“We are going to have to start from scratch,” Jurgensen said.

“Every weekend is going to be a

tough battle, but that’s what the guys want. You want to be in competitive hockey games.”

Some players on the team, like forward Michael Desalvo, did not expect to play DII hockey while at Marquette.

“When I came in I knew we were good, but not this good,” Desalvo said. “I thought we would be a good DII team so it’s a little bit of a surprise, but a good surprise.”

Next year, the team will take on a new role as underdogs. Most teams in the NCHL will not know what to expect from the Golden Eagles. Jurgensen said the focus for next year will be taking on that underdog role and trying to

prove themselves.

“It’ll be important for us to put these last few years behind us,” he said. “We have to start over and realize everything is going to be a notch up.”

As a coach, Jurgensen believes part of his job is to lead the program to new heights. Moving to DII is one way he believes he is doing so.

“It’s always about trying to improve. This is just another step in the right direction toward building our program,” Jurgensen said.

“We want to get people who want to come to Marquette for a great education and play hockey at a high level.”
